Jan. 6 panel’s ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson provided ‘secondhand hearsay’ on Capitol riot: Jack Smith

WASHINGTON — The House Select January 6th Committee’s “star” Cassidy Hutchinson provided “second hearsay” about the 2021 Capitol riot and wasn’t considered as a witness in the election interference case brought against President Trump, according to former special counsel Jack Smith.

Smith told the House Judiciary Committee in a closed-door deposition on Dec. 17 that Hutchinson — who testified at the Jan. 6 select panel’s made-for-TV hearings in June 2022 — “certainly” wouldn’t have made a “powerful” witness because she couldn’t provide “firsthand” testimony.

“My recollection with Ms. Hutchinson, at least one of the issues was a number of the things that she gave evidence on were secondhand hearsay, were things that she had heard from other people,” the ex-Trump prosecutor testified to the Judiciary lawmakers and staff, the deposition’s transcript shows.
 
“As a result, that testimony may or may not be admissible, and it certainly wouldn’t be as powerful as firsthand testimony,” Smith said.

Then democrat Attorney General, Merrick Garland, who was also a democrat proposed candidate for the Supreme Court allowed this "testimony" to go forward?

PoliticsJack Smith Admits The Truth About ‘Star’ Jan 6 Committee Witness

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith — the Biden-led Justice Department’s handpicked prosecutor who handled cases against President Donald Trump — admitted during a deposition earlier this week that a key January 6 Committee witness lacked the knowledge to make her highly publicized claims true.

In one of the most high-profile moments from the Hollywood-produced January 6 hearings, former Trump aide Cassidy Hutchinson made a number of bizarre claims against her former boss. According to her testimony, President Trump attempted to “grab the wheel” of a Secret Service vehicle and head to the Capitol when unrest erupted following the day’s protests.

This claim has been thoroughly debunked by Secret Service agents but is often repeated in left-wing political and media circles.

Earlier this week, Smith sat for a closed-door deposition before the House Judiciary Committee. The eight-hour session was part of the committee’s oversight into his prosecutorial decisions and the handling of these cases.

A transcript of the deposition was made public on December 31, 2025, offering insights into how Smith evaluated evidence and witnesses during his probe.

A key focus of the questioning involved Hutchinson’s 2022 testimony, which included accounts of interactions within the Trump administration on that day. Smith explained that his team assessed her statements as part of building the election interference case but ultimately determined they had limitations due to their reliance on indirect information.

Smith characterized much of Hutchinson’s testimony as secondhand or thirdhand hearsay, meaning it was based on what others had told her rather than her direct observations. He stated that this made her accounts less reliable for courtroom use.
